Why do some GP charge?
Answers:
hmm, well since this is in the motorcycles section.I thought you meant GP = Grand Prix. But since your question would make absolutely no sense that way, and the other brits seemed to pick up on that you mean General practitioner, I'd just like to tell you that we in the USA have to pay EVERY TIME we go to the doctor! If you don't have medical insurance to cover part of it, you almost can't go because the costs are so high. I think it's one of our societies crowning FLAWS.
If I ever come to england, Trisha, would you care to show me around? :-D
For what? consultations they shouldnt charge but they have the right to charge for extras such as letters, medicals and reports.

GPcan only charge you for a letter
dunno
GPs are entitled to charge for private letters (i.e. for insurance companies, etc.), private prescriptions, access to your medical records, private sick notes (i.e. ones not for Social Security purposes), full medical examinations (particularly those requested by employers or prospective employers), and probably many other things.
They can charge you for signing your passport application, your firearms application, for special `jabs` required to visit foreign countries, for private medicals for job applicants.etc.
because they are supposed to.
The health service is there to provide a service, when you are ill generally, the chargeable services are normally related to non ilness services
